2026 Forced Migration and Resettlement Community Partnership Symposium on March 30, 2026, at UNL’s City Campus Nebraska Union, a one-day convening focused on strengthening collaboration, sharing resources, and building practical connections among those working on migration and resettlement issues across Nebraska.
The symposium is designed as a continuation of our 2025 Symposium. Based on feedback from last year, we listened carefully and intentionally redesigned the symposium as a one-day gathering, making it easier for participants from across the state to attend while still creating meaningful space for connection, learning, and collaboration.
Building from last year’s findings, this year’s gathering emphasizes bringing together people and organizations from across Nebraska who are grappling with similar challenges, creating opportunities to share ideas, surface practical approaches, and strengthen connections that can be sustained beyond the event.
We’d like to personally invite you to participate and would greatly appreciate your help in sharing this registration with colleagues, students, and partners who may be interested. The symposium will bring together community organizations, service providers, educators, researchers, and students for a day that prioritizes meaningful exchange and actionable connections.
Highlights of the 2026 symposium include:
• Collaborative working sessions that bring participants from across Nebraska together to share ideas, practical approaches to current challenges, and opportunities for partnership.
• Dedicated time and shared tools for resource-sharing and connection-building, resulting in a living, shared resource document that participants can use throughout the coming year to stay connected, exchange recommendations, and support one another’s work.
